Living in a country and having time to appreciate its magic, charm and idiosyncrasies is entirely different to a once off vacation or seminar abroad. Whichever route you take, we hope that your lasting impressions reached your expectations. Central Asia allows for a radically different exposure to countries whose history and tradition are not just cherished, but venerated. DISCOVERY Central Asia's objective is to enable you to make a discerning choice.

Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, the 3 countries that DISCOVERY Central Asia currently covers, are 3 phenomenal opportunities offering a unique insight to breathtaking sights, cultural differences and an instant time warp revival.

Together with a group of ardent local and foreign colleges, it is our goal to unravel what has been so mystically enshrouded for so long and present to you the most popular, interesting highlights. Central Asia is a photographer's utopia, a carpet bargaining delight and a part of the world that has a milieu all of its own. Here one finds an unhurried pace of life, so alien to our western way of living, that it does wonders to enrich the soul.

Our new Travelers Tales section invites you to write about your travel experiences. We look forward to receiving letters and photographs of your journeys within Central Asia.
